Ⅳ.阅读理解

A

Let us consider what we can do for the food problem.

The simple way to increase food production, one might suppose, is to bring more land into farmland and put more people to work on it.

But it is proved in some developing countries that this will bring some problems. It will quickly make the soil poorer there and destroy forest growth. Further more, the people there will always find they need more people to work on this land to produce more food.

During the past twenty years, some developing countries have increased a lot more farmland in their countries, but their populations have in the meantime grown faster; therefore they are farther than before. And their food increase has been gained at the cost of using up the rich lands. Many of the lands have become poor lands and are producing less food now.

Meanwhile, farming in the developed countries has produced more food through improved technology. Since 1940, farmland has been reduced 7 percent in the United States but cereal (谷物) production has jumped 60 percent. The increase in the corn output, thanks to hybrid corn (杂交玉米), has been even greater.

The secret is scientific ways, of course. And compared to the developing countries, the populations in developed countries have increased just a little larger than twenty years ago.

On the whole，world population today is increasing at the speed higher than ever before. Every year the population is two percent larger, so that the 6,000,000,000 people on the earth today will present another 120,000,000 mouths to be fed by the time next year. It is a fearsome thought that this time tomorrow there will be added to this world population some 360,000 persons.

What can we do about the increase of population，or the lack of food to feed such a large, increasing population? That is a very

important problem before everyone on the earth, young or old，men or women.

1. In the author's opinion, ________ seems to be the most serious problem today.

A. pollution

B. lack of food

C. poor farmland

D. the increase of world population

答案与解析D由最后一段“What can we do about the increase of population ...”，及倒数第二段人口增长的几个数据可知。

2. To get enough food for the world population，________.

A. we should develop farming science and technology

B. we should get more land into farmland

C. developed countries should produce more food

D. developing countries should stop making forests into farmland

答案与解析A由第五段“Meanwhile，farming ... through improved technology.”可知。

3. From the agriculture history in US, we can conclude that ________.

A. the more population there is，the less food there is

B. the richer a country is，the richer it will become

C. science will be helpful in feeding the world population

D. developing countries cannot settle their food problem

答案与解析C由倒数第四段“Since 1940 ... has been ... even greater.”及倒数第三段“The secret is scientific ways ...”可知。

4. The author seems to suggest that the food problem cannot be settled unless ________.

A. we stop getting more land into farmland

B. everyone realizes how serious the problem is

C. pollution is stopped

D. there is no more room for more people

答案与解析B文章最后一句“That is a very important problem before everyone on the earth ...”可知。

B

Polly Jones lived on a farm. She had lived there all her life，all twelve years of it. Her father, who managed the farm，had just lifted the potato crop. Prices were high; he wanted to sell the crop as quickly as he could.

Polly wandered over the rough field looking for the small potatoes that the pickers had accidentally missed. She found one，then another，then a handful. She was pleased. They were delicious once cooked. Then she caught sight of something else. It looked like a piece of colored stone. Polly picked it up and thought how pretty it was. She could see a pattern on it, a picture of a fish and a part of a leaf. She scraped the soil away around her feet and found that she was standing on what seemed to be a piece of pavement. Stuck to another piece of stone was something small and round like a button. She realized it was an old coin.

The field was busy the next morning though not with potato pickers. In front of the house where the farm machinery usually stood were several cars and a police van. A group of distinguished-looking men and women had appeared the morning after her father's telephone call. The local television station had shown some pictures of the field with Polly pointing to the place where she had found her pavement. It was proved to be of Roman origin and was being

described as the most exciting thing that had happened in the area since the end of the Second World War. In those days an American airbase had occupied the site of the potato field.

A week later about forty students arrived from the local university. That afternoon a truck with equipment arrived. The excavation (挖掘) was officially under way. Permission had been given and the “dig”，as it was called, was expected to last several months. Polly wondered how the everyday work of the farm would get done with so many strange people around and cars coming and going all day long. All the unusual activities had made the cows and sheep restless. Her father said their cows produced less milk.

Still, it was interesting and of great fun. They had let her keep the gold coin. From then on, Polly would always walk carefully over potato fields.

5. There were still potatoes in the field because the pickers ________.

A. had left them for Polly on purpose

B. thought they were too small

C. would pick them later

D. had failed to notice them

答案与解析D由第二段第一句“... looking for the small potatoes that the pickers had accidentally missed.”可知。

6. When Polly was looking for potatoes ________ caught her attention first.

A. a part of a leaf

B. an old coin

C. a piece of pavement

D. a button

答案与解析C由第二段“... and found that she was standing on what seemed to be a piece of pavement.”可知。

7. Why did the findings cause great excitement?

A. The coin was priceless.

B. An ancient Roman site was discovered.

C. Few old coins had been found since the War.

D. Such old coins had been found in American airbases.

答案与解析B由第三段“It was proved to be of Roman origin ...”可知。

8. How did the “dig” affect the life on the farm?

A. It brought the farmers wealth overnight.

B. It prevented Polly from attending class.

C. It attracted more farmers to the potato fields.

D. It reduced milk production.

答案与解析D由第四段最后一句“Her father said their cows produced less milk.”可知。双基限时练(五)Unit 2Part Ⅱ

6．I remembered ________ (lock) the door before I left the office, but forgot to turn off the lights.

答案与解析to lock句意：我离开办公室之前记得关门却忘记关灯了。remember to do表示“记得做”，与后半句中的“forgot to”相对应。

Did you know that vegetables can grow in the climates they are not used to? Cool climate vegetables like asparagus (芦笋) are now able to be grown in places as hot as Hawaii. In Hawaii, marine (海的) engineers have been able to actually let you believe such vegetables are

living in hotter climates. In that way they grow faster and taste better. What these engineers have been using is simply cold sea water. How did they use it? They place pipes in the soil and cold water flowing through them cools the earth. This causes plantgrowth and enables gardeners in tropical climates (热带气候) to grow crops from cooler climates. Also some of these pipes are exposed to the air and they make the air “wet” and thus water the gardens. What especially makes people happy about this process (过程) is that nothing bad to the natural conditions is being used. Another new use of cold ocean water is to cool

buildings. Engineers believe that the entire west coast of the United States could be airconditioned by using sea water.

5. What does the new system enable the gardeners to do?

A. Water the field with sea water.

B. Grow asparagus in hot places.

C. Grow cool climate vegetables in hot areas.

B. How to grow crops in tropical climates.

C. How to cool the soil.

D. How to use sea water.

答案与解析D由文中“What these engineers have been using is simply cold sea water. How did they use it？”可知。

8. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

A. sea water can act as an air-conditioner

B. asparagus are only grown in hot places

C. the writer wants to tell us something about scientific advance

D. sea water has advantages

答案与解析C此题为根据文章内容推理，而A、D两项为作者文中明确提出的正确观点，B项文章中明确表明asparagus可在夏威夷那么热的地方种植，故A、B、D三项均被排除。

高中英语黄金阅读(高一版) 习俗类 (1) In the US, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available, even if a large one is. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them. At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill. Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day. Serving in restaurants is often large; too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a “doggie bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself. Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have “Sunday dinner”. This is an especially big noon meal. Tips are not usually added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either. A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change. 1. Which statement is true? A. American people like sitting with people they don’t know. B. A hostess always seats a small group at a large table. C. American people never sit with people they don’t know. D. American people would not light a cigarette if the people who sit at the same table mind their smoking. 2. What is served before you order? A. bread B. butter C. coffee D. cold water 3. What do American people always do when servings are too large for them? A. They take the food home with a doggie bag for their dogs. B. They leave the food on the table and go away. C. They take the food home with a doggie bag and enjoy the food later. D. They ask the waitress or waiter to keep the food for them. 4. Sunday dinner is_______. A. a dinner in the evening B. A big noon meal C. a big lunch on Sunday D. A supper on Sunday 【答案解析】本文介绍了美国人在外就餐时的风俗习惯。 1. D。细节题。根据第一段及关键句…it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them 可知 A、B、C 与原文不相符，同时关键句告诉我们“未

Unit 1 Festivals around the world FESTIVALS AND CELEBRATIONS Festivals and celebrations of all kinds have been held everywhere since ancient times. Most ancient festivals would celebrate the end of cold weather, planting in spring and harvest in autumn. Sometimes celebrations would be held after hunters had caught animals. At that time people would starve if food was difficult to find, especially during the cold winter months. Today’s festivals have many origins, some religious, some seasonal, and some for special people or events. Festivals of the dead Some festivals are held to honour the dead or to satisfy the ancestors, who might return either to help or to do harm. For the Japanese festival Obon, people should go to clean graves and light incense in memory of their ancestors. They also light lamps and play music because they think that will lead the ancestors back to earth. In Mexico, people celebrate the Day of the Dead in early November. On this important feast day, people eat food in the shape of skulls and cakes with “bones” on them. They offer food, flowers and gifts to the dead. The Western holiday Halloween also had its origin in old beliefs about the return of the spirits of dead people. It is now a children’s festival, when they can dress up and go to their neighbours’ homes to ask for sweets. If the neighbours do not give any sweets, the children might play a trick on them. Festivals to Honour People Festivals can also be held to honour famous people. The Dragon Boat Festival in China honours the famous ancient poet, Qu Y uan. In the USA, Columbus Day is in memory of the arrival of Christopher Columbus in the New World. India has a national festival on October 2 to honour Mohandas Gandhi, the leader who helped gain India’s independence from Britain. Harvest Festivals Harvest and Thanksgiving festivals can be very happy events. People are grateful because their food is gathered for the winter and the agricultural work is over. In European countries, people will usually decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit, and will get together to have meals. Some people might win awards for their farm produce, like the biggest watermelon or the most handsome rooster. China and Japan have mid-autumn festivals when people admire the moon and in China enjoy moon-cakes. Spring Festivals The most energetic and important festivals are the ones that look forward to the end of winter and to the coming of spring. At the Spring Festival in China, people eat dumplings, fish and meat and may give children lucky money in red paper. There are dragon dances and carnivals, and families celebrate the Lunar New Year together. Some Western countries have very exciting carnivals, which take place forty days before Easter, usually in February. These carnivals might include parades, dancing in the streets day and night, loud music and colourful clothing of al kinds. Easter is an important religious and social festival for Christians around the world. It celebrates the return of Jesus from the dead and the coming of spring and new life. Japan’s Cherry Blossom Festival happens a little later. The country, covered with cherry tree flowers, looks as though it is covered with pink snow. People love to get together to eat, drink and have fun with each other. Festivals let us enjoy life, be proud of our customs and forget our work for a little while.

But he became inspired when he tho ught about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera. This was the deadly dise ase of its day. Neither its cause nor its cure was understood. So many thousand s of terrified people died every time there was an outbreak. John Snow wanted t o face the challenge and solve this problem. He knew that cholera would never b e controlled until its cause was found. He became interested in two theories that possibly explained how cholera ki lled people. The first suggested that cholera multiplied in the air. A cloud of dangerous gas floated around until it found its victims. The second suggested that people absorbed this disease into their bodies with their meals. From the stomach the disease quickly attacked the body and soon the affected person die d. John Snow suspected that the second theory was correct but he needed eviden ce. So when another outbreak hit London in 1854, he was ready to begin his enqu iry. As the disease spread quickly through poor neighbourhoods, he began to gat her information. In two particular streets, the cholera outbreak was so severe that more than 500 people died in ten days. He was determined to find out why. First he marked on a map the exact places where all the dead people had liv ed. This gave him a valuable clue about the cause of the disease. Many of the d eaths were near the water pump in Broad Street (especially numbers 16, 37, 38 a nd 40). He also noticed that some houses (such as 20 and 21 Broad Street and 8 and 9 Cambridge Street) had had no deaths. He had not foreseen this, so he made further investigations. He discovered that these people worked in the pub at 7 Cambridge Street. They had been given free beer and so had not drunk the water from the pump. It seemed that the water was to blame. Next, John Snow looked into the source of the water for these two streets. He found that it came from the river polluted by the dirty water from London. H e immediately told the astonished people in Broad Street to remove the handle f rom the pump so that it could not be used. Soon afterwards the disease slowed d own. He had shown that cholera was spread by germs and not in a cloud of gas. In another part of London, he found supporting evidence from two other deat hs that were linked to the Broad Street outbreak. A woman, who had moved away f rom Broad Street, liked the water from the pump so much that she had it deliver ed to her house every day. Both she and her daughter died of cholera after drin king the water. With this extra evidence John Snow was able to announce with ce rtainty that polluted water carried the virus.

新人教版高中英语课文译文 必修四 第一单元卓有成就的女性 Reading 非洲野生动物研究者 清晨5点45分，太阳刚从东非的贡贝国家公园的上空升起，我们一行人准备按照简研究黑猩猩的方法去森林里拜访它们。简研究这些黑猩猩家族已经很多年了，她帮助人们了解了黑猩猩跟人类的行为是多么的相似。我们当天的首相任务就是观察黑猩猩一家是如何醒来的。这意味着我们要返回前一天晚上我们离开时黑猩猩睡觉的大树旁。大家坐在树荫下等待着，这时候黑猩猩睡醒了，准备离开。然后这群黑猩猩向森林深处漫步而去，我们尾随其后。在大部分时间里，黑猩猩或互相喂食，或彼此擦身，这在它们的家族里是爱的表达方式。简预先提醒我们，到下午的时候我们就会又脏又累。她说对了，但是到了傍晚时分我们就觉得这一切都是值得的。我们看到黑猩猩妈妈跟她的幼子们在树上玩耍，后来看见它们一起回窝里睡觉了。我们明白了黑猩猩家庭成员之间的联系像人类家庭一样紧密。 在简之前没有人完全了解黑猩猩的行为。她花了多年的时间来观察并记录黑猩猩的日常活动。从孩提时代起，简就想在动物生活的环境中研究它们。但是，这不是一件简单的事。当她1960年最初来到贡贝时。对女性来说，住进大森林还是很稀罕的事情。她母亲头几个月来帮过她的忙，这才使她得以开始自己的计划。她的工作改变了人们对黑猩猩的看法。比方说，她的一个重要发现是黑猩猩猎食动物。而在此之前，人们一直认为黑猩猩只吃水果和坚果。她曾经亲眼看到

过一群黑猩猩捕杀一只猴子，然后把它吃掉。她还发现了黑猩猩是如何交流的，而她对黑猩猩身势语的研究帮助她勾勒出黑猩猩的社会体系。 40年来，简·古道尔一直在呼吁世人了解并尊重这些动物的生活。她主张应该让野生动物留在野外生活，而不是用于娱乐或公告。她还为黑猩猩建起了可以安全生活的专门的保护区，她的生活是忙忙碌碌的，然而，正如她所说的：“我一旦停下来，所有的一切就会涌上心头。我就会想起实验室的黑猩猩，太可怕了。每当我看着野生黑猩猩时，这个念头总是萦绕着我。我会对自己说：…难道它们不幸运吗？?然后我就想起了那些没有如何过错却被关在笼子里的小 黑猩猩。一旦你看到这些，你就永远不会忘记……。” 简已经得到了她想要得到的一切：在动物的栖息地工作：获得博士学位；还向世人证明女人和男人一样也能在森林里生活。她激励着人们为妇女们的成就而喝彩。 Using Language 为什么不继承她的事业？ 上学时我喜欢英语、生物和化学，但是我进大学该选哪门专业呢？直到有一天晚上坐在电脑旁研究中国的伟大女性时，我才有了答案。 很偶然地，我看到了一篇关于林稚巧大夫的文章。她是妇科专家，1901年生，1983年去世。林稚巧似乎一直都在为自己选择的事业而奔忙，去国外留学，写了很多书和文章。其中有一本书引起了我的注意。这是一本小书，介绍如何从妇女怀孕到护理婴儿的过程中降低死亡率，她提出了一些可以遵循的简单的做法，保持婴儿清洁和健康，让他们远离疾病。她为什么要写这些东西呢?林稚巧认为哪些妇女会需要这些忠告呢？我仔细地看了这篇文章，了解到那是为农村妇女写的。也许是她们在遇到紧急情况时找不到医生。
